I’ve been active with nonprofits all my life and spent the last 10 years working in development and fundraising. I’ve worked in education and supported nonprofits focused on education. I believe that education is a true economic driver and can help raise people up from poverty and open doors previously closed. Combining technology and education and making is accessible to all is a true game-changer!

Hope to see you tonight in the chat!
